I partnered with Robert Kaufman Fabrics to offer a quilt kit that has the exact Kona colors I used. It will be available February 2015 in online and local quilt shops as a quilt kit OR as a block of the month club. The kit includes all of the fabric to make the quilt top and binding.

The book also contains the pattern for a bonus pillow. Clearly, I was really excited to reveal the pillow!!

Gravity is made with the Hex N More and Super Sidekick rulers. Both rulers are available now in shops. Click the links to the rulers to see the video tutorials on how to use them.

The book is printed in full color, and it includes templates. Plus there's no Y seams!

Outtake Photos

The day Gravity was finished, we had just enough sunlight to snap a few photos at a local park before the sunset. The wind, however, was not cooperating.

But it did give me an opportunity to get a detailed shot of Angela's quilting:

Then we ventured to a less windy spot in the park...

Oops, feet still showing...

And then I was able to get this photo, which was the first photo I publicly shared of Gravity. You can find it on Instagram with the tag #GravityQuilt.

A few days later, Lawrence and I took a vacation (and quilt pattern cover photo shoot trip) to Hawaii. As soon as we arrived, I snapped some photos on my phone of Gravity near a pretty waterfall.

----

And then we ventured out to the beach with the quilt to see if we could get a good photo for the book cover. Again, the wind was not in our favor...

We spread the quilt out on the ground & needed to use weights in the corners to keep it from flying away and into the water.

Lawrence stayed with the quilt to protect it.

I really liked how this spot looked like a mix of earth & moon (which reminds me of actual gravity...), but we just couldn't get the right shot.

Luckily, Lawrence is patient, because it was not comfortable on those rocks, trust me.

I got a smile when I told him we were done at this spot.

---

Finally, it was back to the waterfall where I had snapped the awesome photos on my phone a few days earlier. Which was promising, but the lighting wasn't right.

We waited a bit for the clouds to move & we moved the quilt a bit, too...

At last, we got the right shot. What you don't see in the cover photo is that Lawrence is holding onto the bottom corner of the quilt to get it in the perfect place!

-----

Once we returned home, I put Gravity on our bed & fell in love with it even more....

And then I shared the first image of the Gravity quilt bonus pillow on social media.

I did the straight line quilting on the bonus pillow all by myself.

And I got another photo of Angela's amazing quilting on Gravity.

I love the colors in this detail shot of the bonus pillow.

I LOVE this quilt, and I hope you do, too!

I can't wait to see photos of your Gravity quilt creations, and the variations that will happen as quilters begin making them. I know that each quilt made with the Kona Cotton kit (available for pre-order now) will take on it's own look and feel given how many colors of fabrics are included in the kit.

And I'm really looking forward to seeing it in Batiks, blenders of all kinds, your rainbow inspirations will be endless!

Will you be making your own Gravity quilt next year? What fabrics will you use for your creation? Tell us about it in the comments below. Thanks so much!

I love the Kona fabrics, I've been collecting them awhile and looking forward to using them in a quilt this winter. Thinking about using them in an ONLINE mystery quilt and also have a couple Jaybird patterns that I've already started and trying to finish up!

I love the Lotus and am inspired by it, but also want to make Park Bench. WOW Congratulations. I love Kona solids and use them a lot. Love Moda fabrics too. Got fingers crossed. Thanks for the opportunity to win the bundle. Love your work.

I just started this and am so thankful the colors come in order in the kit! Thank you!!Do you have any math configurations for making this a bigger quilt? I have a king and think it wouldn't be too hard to keep creating triangles, but don't know how many to add.
